Default 140 vs 145 vs 160mm cranks for MUni


Wow, that's amazing...people know my muni setup! Tony, you've ridden my
muni. Did you really find it all that different to your muni with 152's
(or whatever they were)? I've done biggish drops (like that one at
Canberra) and didn't even think about my crank length...it just wasn't
an issue for me. In fact, you did that drop and the bigger one. I find
my muni pretty good for hill climbing as well because you keep your
momentum and generally ride in a smoother fashion. I think you should
go for 145's. I honestly think that it's the perfect setup (at least
for me) with the brake the I will soon have (yes!). I think if the
crank length is not an issue when descending No. 9 without a brake then
it's a good length.

Andrew

hand...I'm getting a brake for my muni! *
